Project for book collection in field of engineering

  

Foreword

 Every year, Japanese universities and research institutes normally liquidate an enormous amount of old, used books due to the limited space in libraries or book storages. Many of these books, well written in English, are in science and technology. Hence, even though they are not the newest edition, they still hold high value in term of reference. English-written research books and libraries in science and technology fields, whereas in Vietnam, have been out of dated for long period because of extremely limited budget for purchasing news.

 In acknowledging this context, we, member of Japanese Vietnamese Engineers Exchange Forum (JVEEF), in cooperation with Library of Institute of Transport Science and Technology (ITST) in Vietnam, would like to start a pilot campaign to collect and send engineering books, which are written in English, to help updating research libraries in Vietnam.

 Library and it location

 All colleted books will be stored in Library of Institute of Transport Science and Technology, Ministry of Transport of Vietnam.

Below is the address of Library of Institute of Transport Science and Technology:

1252 – Duong Lang Dong Da Hanoi Vietnam

Tel: +84-4-766-1849

Fax: +84-4-766-4380

Email: thuvien@itst.gov.vn

-          To build up, in Viet Nam, a small-scale collection of English-written, engineering related books, which are donated from research institutes, universities and individuals in Japan

-          The library will be for common usage of students studying in related fields.

 Method of implementation

-          To campaign research institutes and universities in Japan for donation of English-written books in engineering field.

-          To collect and classify books
